Linux My first experience with Linux on a PPC machine was Pegasos PPC and Debian. Last weekend I upgraded my Cube G4 450 Mhz and with a blazingly fast 120 GB 7200 RPM WD drive (for just $58!) to replace the default (and extremely slow) 20 GB Maxtor IDE drive. In this vast drive space, there is enough room for more than one operating system, so I decided to install Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 (and then upgrade to 3.0.1 via APT) as an addition to Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. Read more for my impressions of YDL 3.0.1 and check some screenshots too.

YDL works with G3 upgrades?
by Fatal Claws on Wed 22nd Oct 2003 23:16 UTC

My system is a Power Macintosh 7600 with a G3/400 upgrade

Hmm, I thought YDL didn't work with G3 upgrades, only the stock CPUs, which would be a 604 or 604e.

Thanks.
